This I Promise You

“This I Promise You assembles international performance-based video works that herald an alternate future—part utopia, part nightmare—in which dominant structures of gender and sexuality finally collapse beyond the borders of bodies and gestures. While some videos point to the fragile fault lines that are being torn apart as we speak, others propose fantastical visions, realities on the other side, worlds that the artists have decided they will wait for no longer. These videos all seem to make a promise to the viewer: a promise that there is more ahead, a promise that it wonʼt be long, a promise that we are, in fact, already there.” (BNR)
